Who's a Pretty Puppy?

Hi Woofers!

Daisy, Holly, Snowflake and Mr Brambles here again!

What a run around day we had. First thing this morning we rolled over and went back to sleep again!

Well, after such a busy day we deserved an extra half an hour in bed!

Old Two Legs got up at the normal time and spent half an hour thrashing around the office on the Mary Celeste!

Not a pretty sight!

We left the ferrets in bed and went off for a walk, OTL said it would be too wet for the ferrets but it was OK for us 'cos we were going straight down the parlour after our walk!

We started our walk and very soon it was obvious that we were about to get soaked!

Dark clouds and spots of rain, yep, it's going to be a wet one!

Here come the rain!

Just before it started to pour down we were treated to a vertical rainbow that turned into a 'Y' shaped rainbow!

There's the Rainbow and here comes the rain!

We got back to the car and we were all soaked, including OTL!

Am I too wet for the parlour?

Later when OTL picked us up, we were straight down to the Sea Wall again but this time OTL kept us off the muddy bits and we both managed to get home without tons of mud on our paws!

Holly looking Super Good!

OTL insisted on taking our photo, so we kept turning our heads away every time he pressed the shutter release!

Me, Looking The Business!

Back home we were presented with a bowl of chicken, so not a too bad a day after all!

I've been watching the ferrets having a game in OTL's office and I managed to get up on the work top while they were running around on the floor. I felt quite safe, until Snowflake started to climb up the side of the cage!

What a good day you've had. Beauty parlour and bowls of chicken ............ mind nothing less than you deserve. You both look beautiful. Archie's eyes are popping at the sight of 2 beautiful girls. Good job it rained before you went for your haircuts rather than after. Have a lovely evening girls and ferrets. :) xxx

Hi Girlies and Mr B... well those people in the parlour are really clever, you went in all bedraggled after the rain and came out looking like superstars, all fluffy and curly ... wonder if they could do something for me??Love the photo of the rainbow it looked as if it touched the ground just on the beach, so that's where the pot of gold is!! Glad you had chicken today, Doggy Scoff would have been hard to take after that luxury doggy bag feast. Right I'd better get off sounds like coffee and biccies been made in the kitchen ... I heard the missus say she'd bought another box of shortbread this morning so I might be in luck xxx Jasper and his missus

That was a lucky rainbow you found and then chicken after yesterdays steak dinner, hope your lucky streak lasts. You both look very smart after the beauty parlour and glad you had no muddy paws afterwards. Looks like rain again tomorrow so perhaps Snowflake and Mr Brambles had better stay in the dry. Mr B will not like that so you had better stay out of the way when he throws his water pot about and watch out for the poo pot, you don't want that! Maybe liver tomorrow, three in a row would be really magnificent! xxxx

About Me

Hello, my name is Daisy and I was taken away from
Mum and Dad by Old Two Legs and The Missus one cold dark evening. It was a bit
traumatic at the time but we all soon settled down and everything is OK now.

My sister Holly came to live with us about a year later and between the pair of us we manage to keep these Two Legs in line!

In December 2012, we were joined by Snowflake, a little ferret we found in our garden. She had her own home in OTL's office called Snowy Heights!

Then in July 2013 Mr Brambles, a super Sandy Hob Ferret, came to live with us and be a mate for Snowflake. We sadly lost Mr Brambles to old age in September 2015. A gentle ferret who will be missed terribly. We also lost Miss Snowflake in November 2015. She has left a big hole in our hearts, she was a real Daddy's Girl to the end.

There arrived two new ferrets in August 2015, Miss May and Miss April who are sisters, born in 2013, we think! They were full of fun and mischief and kept up the tradition of pinching our biscuits, just like Brambles did!

Sadly Miss April contracted Cardiomyopathy, which is a heart condition. She died in September 2016 and is resting in a flower pot in the garden with Snowflake and Brambles.

We were down to two ferrets and an empty cage but that didn't last long, a brother and sister ferrets needed a 'Forever Home' and Fred & Wilma moved in. They are about two and a half years old, so they were born 2012/2013. Fred is a gentle soul who loves cuddles with OTL and Wilma a bossy sister but loves OTL! We reckon them to be Polecat Coloured Ferrets.

It was a shock when Wilma was attacked by a dog and unfortunately died of shock a few hours later. Like Snowflake, Brambles and April, she is also sleeping in a flower pot in our garden.

Fred was not happy about being on his own and he was introduced to Wendy, a Polecat Coloured Ferret who found her way to the Harrietsham Ferret Rescue.

Introductions went well to begin with but within a day or so she began instructing Fred on just who was really in charge!

We had something similar with Miss May who lost her sister to Cardiomyopathy (Weak Heart). Miss May is a feisty young lady and she was introduced to Eric de Ferret while we were down at the Harrietsham Ferret Rescue and although she tried to be a bit bossy, he was having none of it! He may only be six months old but her didn't back down and the pair came to an agreement!

So young Eric moved in and they both started to learn how to get on together!

OTL takes us walking every day and we have 'Adventures'! The Missus feeds us, so, what more can a pair of puppies and family of fun loving ferrets ask for?
